    I had too many "issues" with the.... vehicle.... once the Baja kit was on the truck and I lost faith in the company.
    But I am not interested in battling with them anymore so I will keep all my issues to myself
    If you'd like more info on what issues Baja kits has given other customers feel free to contact envy Motorsports

    Back to the infamous axle situation...

    We just found out one of our Customers 2016 Tacoma had a 29 spline on one side and a 30 spline on the other!

    smashed this, broke that, covered it up with tape and paint
    Just did the +2 Race.
    If I went any bigger I'd have issues driving on the back roads here on the east coast.
    Nicole is a fantastic woman and was ready to stand behind me, my truck and my project. And Pat knows just about everything and everybody in the industry and it made working with other people on my vehicle a million times easier
    And I've got finned reservoirs with compression adjusters on my coilovers now and have more travel :)

    How much more travel do you have on it with the TC 2+? Yea man Pat alone convinced me for my driving to go 3.5 which I have no regrets on and the race is a must for the clearance. Im surprised though on width as I am on the east as well and the extra 3 inches of width isn't an issue. My glass fenders are the only thing I get worried about getting crunched up.
